i've been having this same problem, did a lot of searching, couldn't find anything specific. finally, i just logged on to hotmail from my computer and cleaned out as much unneeded email as i could, and that seemed to fix the problem.
I also set up some more folders and moved stuff i wanted to keep out of my inbox. I heard one person say you want to keep your inbox lean.
Good luck, keep us posted.
